Memorial Day will soon be here and that means that beach season is just around the corner! I just took the time to schedule some time off for summer fun in the sun, and my kids are already nagging us to take them to the beach.
Did you know you can check the water temperature at the beach online? How nice that we can keep an eye on the water temperature so we can plan our vacations for optimal surf splashing.
This summer don’t forget the sunscreen whether you’re at the beach or not. In the past, I didn’t think too much about the effects of sun exposure. I used to think that if I didn’t have a really bad burn, everything was fine. Then a few years ago my father died of skin cancer and the reality of sun exposure and skin damage began to sink in. It’s summertime and we’re all spending more time outdoors – at the pool, the beach, the garden or just playing in the yard, so now’s a good time to be thinking about our skin.
We haven’t booked our vacation rental, so if you know a fun, family-friendly beach town on the northern east coast, let me know. Whether you’re on the land or in the water – stay safe and have a great summer!
